Example

[0022]Please refer to FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 for a first embodiment of the sun hat of the invention. It includes a hat body 3 which has a crown portion 31, a peak portion 32 extended forwards from the bottom of the crown portion 31, and an annular brim portion 33 extended rearwards from two sides of the peak portion 32 and formed at a greater size than that of the peak portion. The brim portion 33 is embedded with at least one flexible wire 34. In this embodiment, the flexible wire 34 is bent in a wavy shape and laid in the entire brim portion 33 to provide desirable holding forces. The flexibly wire 34 is set by stitching. The crown portion 31 further has an adjustable fastener 35 (referring to FIG. 5) opposite to the peak portion 32 that allows a user to adjust the head size of the hat to make wearing more comfortable.

[0023]Please also refer to FIG. 7, the brim portion 33 is extended rearwards from two sides of the peak portion 32 with the gradually increasing size to, and forms a later...

Example

[0024]Please refer to FIG. 8 for a second embodiment of the invention. The flexible wire 34a can be bent and adjusted at a desired size to mate the brim portion 33. For instance, in this embodiment the flexible wire 34a is smaller than the first embodiment. Please refer to FIG. 9 for a third embodiment of the invention in which the flexible wire 34b is embedded inside the brim portion 33 and bent to form a plurality of curves which are equally spaced from each other. FIG. 10 illustrates a fourth embodiment of the invention in which the flexible wire 34c is embedded inside the brim portion 33 in a radial shape. FIG. 11 illustrates a fifth embodiment of the invention in which the flexible wire 34d is embedded inside the brim portion 33 and crisscrossed to form a meshed shape. Thus, through the flexible wire 34 a plurality of layouts can be formed to enhance functionality. In addition to providing sun shade function, it also can facilitate air ventilation to make users feeling cooler a...

Abstract

A sun hat includes a hat body which has a crown portion, a peak portion extended forwards from the bottom of the crown portion and an annular brim portion extended rearwards from two sides of the peak portion. The brim portion is embedded with at least one flexible wire set by stitching. The sun hat thus formed not only can block sunshine, the brim portion also can be flipped upwards in a set profile through the flexible wire embedded inside, hence provides improved air ventilation to enhance comfort and usability.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a hat and particularly to a sun hat.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]There are numerous types of hats on the market. Most of them are used to block sunshine. Some earlier hats have a peak portion extended in the front to form the so-called peaked caps to prevent sunshine from directly shining on wearer's face. Such a peaked cap still exposes wearer's neck to the sunshine. To remedy this drawback, another type of sun hat 1 has been developed as shown in FIG. 1. It has a hat body 1 and a sun cloth 12 extended from the rim thereof to improve sunshine blocking effect. Many people wear such hats during outdoor activities, such as playing golf, strolling or mountain hiking. However, such a design tends to make the sun cloth 12 stay on wearer's neck that makes the wearer feel muggy and uncomfortable. Moreover, when the wearer lower the head, the sun cloth 12 swings forwards and blocks the visual sight at two sides of the eyes. Al...
